I had one that I got from Billy Knowles, it was a bit of a beater and priced accordingly. It was from the late '60s with the older style thick bell cranks, rosewood mica with a decal on the cabinet. S ...

Are you using a plain 6th string or wound? If plain, try switching it to wound string first and re-tuning the pull for the ...

Per Bobby's comment, wound strings have a narrower core so they naturally require a longer pull than a plain string of the same gauge. The small diameter 3rd string is always a much longer pull than t ...

6xxx serial #s were early '80s, last of the production push-pulls before they transitioned to the LeGrande.

1597 S would be late '70s, probably '78 or '79-ish, cut back with narrow cast pedals. It's worthwhile giving Emmons Co. a call to see if they have the original records, but for '70s guitars the exact ...

What thread pitch did you use Wayne? The Suncoast legs used a much coarser thread pitch than a standard steel mic stand clutch. Suncoast are 7/8-14, mic stand are 7/8-27. I assume he did this for the ...

You would have to set it up with a stop on the initial knee lever raise to C that would then be released via a separate pull rod when you engaged the A pedal to allow the full raise to D. It would tak ...
